Man of quality, man of letters

the abbé Prévost between novel and newspaper

"In Rori Bloom's exploration of the tension between Antoine-Francois Prevost's novelistic and journalistic writing, she argues that his novels evoke established and even archaic attitudes toward authorship, while his newspaper elaborates a new understanding of the roles of author and public." "Man of Quality, Man of Letters juxtaposes Prevost's novels and newspaper in order to analyze the sophisticated literary strategies through which this author constructed his complex professional identity."--BOOK JACKET.
